Devialet delivers music with the sound clarity you'd expect of a world leader. The brand has quickly become a reference point for sound quality with the high end Expert amplifier range and Phantom range of wireless connected speakers.

Devialet, formed in 2007, was led to worldwide success by the trio of engineer Pierre-Emmanuel Calmel, visionary entrepreneur Quentin Sannié and designer Emmanuel Nardin. In 2015, Devialet launched Phantom, a wireless speaker recognised by industry specialists as revolutionary in audio technology and widely regarded as the top-connected active speaker on the market.

Devialet’s proprietary and revolutionary ADH technology has transformed amplification forever, enabling a highly effective matching of digital and analog designs for emission of the perfect sound - a more powerful, more distinct and more immersive sound, with no distortion whatsoever. Take the Devialet Phantom test, and play the Phantom’s loud and you will not hear the drivers distort!

ADH is considered one of the most significant audio developments the industry has witnessed in the past 40 years, and it why Devialet was formed. In addition, SAM (Speaker Active Matching) is Devialet’s second technological revolution allowing Devialet systems to be adaptable, so whatever loudspeaker the system has, the amplifier can a adapt the signal as a function of the frequency response of the loudspeakers, an important feature of Devialet’s Expert range.

Additionally, Devialet's "Heart Bass Implosion" technology has been designed specifically for the Phantom range. HBI enables your speaker to operate at a level above ‘normal’ by transmitting ultra-dense audio thanks to lateral beats beneath super high pressure.

At present, the Phantom and Expert ranges have been awarded more 60 times and are over 100 individual patents protecting them. From the groundbreaking design of Experts and Phantom to the artistic ballet of their robotic production lines, Devialet see art as adding meaning to technology.

Phantom Reactor personifies the progress Devialet constantly strives for. This non-stop labour to enhance and compress Devialet technologies means they are now able to offer this in the most compact format achievable.

Devialet aims to provide the world with great products, technology and experience; to be the greatest company the audio industry has ever known. The mission is to make Devialet technology universal.

The name Devialet name is derived from Sieur de Vialet, a fellow of the philosophers Diderot and D’Alembert, who believed that technology with science, contributes to the overall happiness of humanity. The collective goal is what unites and pushes them past limits that are currently possible.

When you purchase a Devialet product, in addition to owning the best-connected speaker in the world, you also have reassurance of free future upgrades via the EVO Platform. When setting up, the Phantoms will continue to upgrade themselves for free, so its internal connections evolve, and continually improve. We have all Devialet Phantom models on demo in our hi-fi showroom, so you can take the Devialet test and be sonically amazed.

Integrated amplifiers feature speaker terminals to connect to a pair of speakers. These terminals typically accept banana plugs, spade plugs and bare wire, though they can vary so it is worth checking the amplifier offers the type of connection that matches your speaker cable. Naim amplifiers for example only accept 4mm banana plugs or Naim’s own proprietary plugs and therefore cannot be used with bare wire. Other manufacturers such as Cyrus also use their own speaker connections, known as BFA, which require speaker cable terminated with BFA plugs rather than spade plugs, banana plugs or bare wire. Some integrated amplifiers feature two sets of speaker outputs, allowing you to switch between two separate sets of speakers or even use multiple pairs simultaneously.

When purchasing an integrated amplifier, just as with a power amplifier, it is important to consider its power rating and whether it is suitably powered to drive the speakers you intend to use. Most speakers are given a recommended power rating, stating the range of amplifier power outputs suitable for optimum speaker performance. If your integrated amplifier is too low powered for your speakers then the overall sound, impact and soundstage will suffer from your speakers not being driven properly. If an amplifier is too powerful, sound can also suffer and you may even risk damaging your speakers.

Integrated amplifiers feature a range of input and connectivity options, thanks to the pre amplifier which is included in the design. This enables you to connect a range of sources to your amplifier, typically via RCA inputs, although a range of other connectivity options exist. Some amplifiers will feature a headphone output, allowing you to use a pair of headphones rather than your main speakers, making private or late night listening very simple. Many integrated amplifiers will also feature a phono input, which enables you to connect a turntable directly to your amp without the need for a phono stage in between. Some models even include an on-board DAC, allowing you to connect digital sources such as a computer, CD player or streamer and enjoy high quality play back. Bluetooth functionality is a recent addition to some amplifiers, allowing you to eliminate the need for wires and direct connection and enjoy the effortless simplicity of high quality wireless Bluetooth playback from a Bluetooth-enabled device.
